My big city is actually doing but with goats! It make my environmental science heart so happy! Especially because it's safe, the cows or other animals get to eat, and it's a lot cheaper than most other avenues.

He's so smart. It just reminds me of the fact that Thomas has an engineering background and he's just out here having a good time.

Pro tip from a former Jared’s salesperson: You want a sparkly white rock that will look like a diamond to the untrained eye and will literally cost the price of a nice dinner for two? Created white sapphire. They’re lab grown and cost *pennies* to make, so you can get a 1 or 2 carat white sapphire for like… $30-80 probably. You can get one as huge as you like, perfectly clear, perfectly flawless. And no one will ever be able to tell the difference except a professional appraiser. Also, sapphires are the second-hardest gemstone (right after diamonds) so they are very durable! Very unlikely that they’ll chip or crack. Get that bitch set in sterling silver and you are GOOD TO GO. Whole thing should cost you less than $200 unless you get a fancy band with a lot of extra stones. Of course, created sapphires come in every color of the rainbow, so if you want something more exciting than plain white, you TOTALLY CAN. 

You can also do a moissanite. They're very sparkly and white. Cheaper than diamonds hut a little more expensive than white sapphires. White sapphires are about the same durability as a diamond so if you're worried about the stone being to soft then a created white sapphire is a good bet.

My friend from Lebanon wrote up a really good thread on Twitter I thought I should share here, just to clear up some of the inaccuracies floating around:
